    Shakhtar suffer their first defeat since the start of autumn

    Shakhtar suffered a 1-0 away defeat to Inter in their most recent Champions League outing on . Despite enjoying 55% possession and firing 12 shots to Inter’s 13, the Ukrainian side failed to find the net. The expected goals tally stood at 0.84 for Shakhtar versus 1 for Inter.

    Shakhtar have been in prolific form, averaging nearly two goals per game over their last ten outings while maintaining a solid defensive record, conceding just 0.7 per match. In their previous five fixtures, they have claimed four wins and suffered only one defeat-and that came in European competition. Their main objective is to hold onto top spot in the standings, so the Miners are unlikely to ease up any time soon.

    Total Goals Prediction

    In 11 of Shakhtar’s last 12 matches, the total goals have stayed under 3.5. This season, the team averages 2.22 goals scored per game while conceding just 0.56, highlighting their control and defensive solidity. Zorya’s attacking numbers are also modest, with an average of 1.33 goals per match. These stats back a bet on under 3.5 total goals at odds of 1.5.

    Corners Prediction

    In 17 of Shakhtar’s last 18 matches, the total number of corners has stayed under 10.5. This trend is further supported by Shakhtar’s own set-piece stats, as the Miners themselves rarely rack up high corner counts. Given this, the suggested bet at odds of 1.56 appears to be a well-founded pick.

    Correct Score Prediction

    Based on statistical analysis and probability distribution, the algorithm highlights three most likely scorelines: 1-0 (13.32%), 2-0 (9.69%), and 1-1 (9.29%). The highest probability is given to a narrow 1-0 win for Shakhtar, though both 2-0 and 1-1 outcomes are close behind. This suggests a competitive match with the hosts holding the edge, but still leaves room for the visitors to find the net.

    ⭐ Editorial Prediction

    Assessing the current form of both sides, Shakhtar clearly hold the edge in attacking quality and consistency. However, Zorya have been clinical on the road, with both teams finding the net in 12 of their last 14 away fixtures. Despite the Miners’ reliability, their open style allows opponents to create dangerous chances. The main pick here is both teams to score (yes).

    Both Teams to Score – (Yes)
